ADAM2 polyclonal, anti-human

Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 2(ADAM2) detection. Tested with WB in Human.Protein Name: Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 2

Protein Function:
Sperm surface membrane protein that may be involved in sperm-egg plasma membrane adhesion and fusion during fertilization. Could have a direct role in sperm-zona binding or migration of sperm from the uterus into the oviduct. Interactions with egg membrane could be mediated via binding between its disintegrin-like domain to one or more integrins receptors on the egg. This is a non catalytic metalloprotease-like protein.

Other Names: Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 2, ADAM 2, Cancer/testis antigen 15, CT15, Fertilin subunit beta, PH-30, PH30, PH30-beta, ADAM2, FTNB
